AFAIK all official communication from IRCC is that you cannot benefit from implied status under IEC, have a look here - http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/implied-statis-iec-to-bowp-t271834.0.html;msg4065859#msg4065859DannyMC8710 said:Because I don't know if with my actual work permit I can be in implied status ( I'm under International Experience Class)
That being said various people claim that they have been able to do what you're doing (got a BOWP from IEC and the PR when through fine)...
Fact is, it will most likely depend on the officer reviewing your case, but some understand that IEC is not a WP and hence there is no bridging it into another WP... I think the correct way to extend your stay on IEC is to get another IEC.
Anyway, good luck and I hope your PPR comes though soon so that you don't need to worry about your BOWP.
